I LOVE the new update! it was so fun reading all of it and it was sooo worth the wait.
although, I Almost lost my shit by this exact scene right here hahahaha
I love how Kegar is so protective of our little cinnamon roll, I kinda thought he was just all happy go lucky, so this surprised me a bit, the music was so relaxing, especially after a long day so I really appreciate it, I felt like I was on cloud nine grinning from ear to ear, and the writing is so good, It reminds me of what happened in the last Kegar update without having to replay through it all, (Although, I did replay just so I could see a certain cg again haha) and the sass this update really lifts the mood.
over-all, I love this new update for the chonky lion, You really outdone yourself tyrving! so many things I didn't expect made this a better experience, Keep up the good work and Ill be waiting fort the new update hehe
but then again, remember to take breaks every now and then, as always, In best regards
-Ace Ayasaki
Edit: I forgot to mention about the incorrect names aarthur said which mas me laugh histerically, hahaha
hi!, I'm so exited for the upcoming build, hope you're doing well and remember to rest well
also, I tried the links so I can download the music, but for some reason they don't work on the android version, so I had to download it via Windows, just sayin
I would like to ask you about if the soundtracks are available to be downloaded. I love this game as much as the soundtracks used. The music is very chill and great. Thank you.
Hello. Thank you, I'm okay - doing my best to stay calm about the situation here in the eastern Europe, and to keep my usual work schedlue.
As for your question: all the songs used in the game can be downloaded for free from their respective sites (these are listed in the in-game credits page with the links). Now, while I don't list the specific songs I'm using, in most cases I keep their original file names, so it should be easy to find them. The one exception are the songs from RPG Maker engine - these comes in bundle with the engine and can be only used in RPG Maker games, thus, you won't be able to find them through normal means.
I know that looking for these specific music files might be a hassle, but I'm sure that while doing it you will be able to find even more chill songs (also, these artists surely deserve our clicks and boosted traffic on their sites :))
If there will be a certain song or two that you will have difficulty to find, feel free wrote me a new reply - I'll be happy to help you with the search.
So I haven't checked itch for a while and hey! What do you know? Kegar already has a route! Imma just download the game and I'll see how Welkin handles the cute lion. Great game, thanks!（＾ω＾）
Hey, ZanderBear. If you're experiencing problems with the MacOS version of the game (unable to save the progress, or run the application), please try out the Web-Browser Version
ok, I love the new update(Obviously lol) that being said, Kegar is really growing on me more and more! hopefully We can finally get sum good loving hehe, the funny quips are definitely my favorite, (I can totally see Welkin saying "draw me like one of your French girls" lmao) that being said, thank you for this great update tyrving!
and once again, remember to take rest when needed, eat well and be careful out there! I hope the best for you
hi the way it looks but it not let me on it an i have try before an it did the sam i have try so mine time it not go it say do you what to open again i whit to try it
so I finally got time to play this update and I gotta say...
I. LOVE. IT. ahem, excuse my fanboy-ism but you really outdid yourself this time haha gonna avoid any spoilers for others but all I have to say is that it couldn't be any more perfect
Great work this update Tyrving! keep up the great work! :D and once again, remember to take rest when needed don't overwork yourself ^^
Hello. The game just got updated, although, it's the last Rowley's update for Day3. Kegar's new update is next, and it's already available for the patrons.
I am playing on a pc that has window 11 and the game at first did not even get to the menu. After I finally get to the menu it keeps crashing before meeting the friends at the hotel. I may try the web version but last time I did on my mac it was missized meaning too big for the window screen it played in.
Hey. I'm sorry to hear about the problem. I haven't had a chance to test Windows 11 yet, so I have no idea if it's a well-known problem or something less common.
As for the web-browser version and the issue with fitting the screen size, next time press F3 - it will resize it to fit your resolution (in full screen mode), or to fit in the web-page banner (non-full screen mode).
Hello. I'm sorry, but currently, I have no plans opening a server decicated to After Years. If you would like to discuss the game, please, feel free to join https://discord.gg/FVN instead.
I try to install the download, but when I click launch after it has I keep getting an unexpected error and it force closes. I have attempted to delete and reinstall with the same result. Anyone else having this issue?
I love, LOVE, L O V E this game, Especially cuz of more kegar content >:3 buuuuuuuuut.... Spoiler-
Step 1 Lie down Step 2 Try not to cry Step 3 Cry all night
this hurts me even with the following dialogue though haha, Literally blanked out for a minute or two, Got up from my chair and screamed into my daki, Welp, ain't too bad, At least I have the backup Childhood friendship trope and BBC hehe~
jk, I will never give up on kegar, Love the game tyrving! keep up the great work, Rest when needed and Love ya! (no homo)
Sincerely, Your hopeless romantic friend, Ace Ayaasaki
Hey, Kazuuu. Yes, the game is still in development. The next Patron demo should be available by the end of October, while the next public demo will be released at the beginning of November.
Having a great time with the game so far! Just got through the path branching and am starting on Rowley. The only thing I've noticed is for some reason, which this may be Mac specific, the game seems to be drawing a lot of resources or something. It drains my laptops battery like crazy. Other than that it's a fantastic game and I can't wait to see it finished!
Hello! Thank you for playing and rating the game! I'm happy to hear that you enjoy it so far. As for the battery draining problem, I think it's the engine problem (it's far from being optimized, and even a simple game like this requires some extra power). If you ever find a moment, I would greatly appreciate it if you could test the Web-Browser version of the game and let me know if it behaves the same way.
It does still drain a decent amount but it didn't feel as significant as the download version. The download version felt like I was using up my whole battery in about an hour but the web browser only used about 20% or so in about half an hour
Man that was kind of a refreshing ride. It wasn't too lax or loose, it wasn't too hot or tense, it just felt quite natural until the deciding phase of which to pick. I'll be holding back on my rating and comments for now until it gets a bit further but I can see its gonna be as what it is being portrayed "A nice relaxing vacation and catching up to old feelings and blooming new ones between friends. "
it's such a good game that make me spend a lot of time to play it. the story line was so good, i can't imagine that angus and Welkin will have a closer relationship its unbelieveable, but it's already done, overall its a good game, good Background too, that's no problem that i find in this game, i still wait for the next update, i'm so excited ^^
It has been some time since I said I would do a Let's Play of the game, so here it is! It's not that special but at the very least I can say the game is pretty fun so far!
Hello again, and thank you for the video. I had a lot of fun watching you playing the game for the first time, and listening to your comments on various things. I have to clarify - while Kegar and I have the same surname, he's not my self insert, if that's what you're wondering :-) I also noticed that the game animations like screen fade in/out runs a bit slow on your device - try turning on "Synch Framerate" in the Settings menu, it might help make the experience more fluid. And speking of the Settings menu, there's also an option to censor nudity, which should help while recording NSFW scenes. I hope it will come in handy :)
Thank you once more for the video. I'll be looking forward to see the next part!
Extract the files from "After Years 0.14.0 (Linux).zip" and you should get a folder with the same name. Inside that should be a file titled "Game". This file does not have an extension. Click on this file to execute it.
If the game does not start, you are likely missing a required library. For me it was gconf, and this is almost certainly the case for you as gconf is depreciated and unlikely to come pre-installed. If you are on an arch based distribution, you can get gconf straight from the AUR. If you use some other distro, you will have to check their software repositories. If you think you have gconf installed and it still wont run, I can walk you through running it from terminal. This will allow you to see any errors that are preventing it from opening.
I have a few predictions on what happened in the new update but I'm not going to say it because it might spoil it for others. I'd wish they Welkin had the guts to do the thing he needs to do, but no. I mean, I would act the same confessing to a crush too so. Ugh! It's so painful seeing Welkin walking around without confessing.
I love this update too! I hope you are having a wonderful time and taking breaks every now and then!
Ooh yeah. Is the new picture of Welkin and Angus a CG in the game because I'm dying for the CG. They look so cute together
Hi! Thank you for playing the game. I'm glad you enjoyed this new update - it was quite a segment to pull off, and I constantly had to rewrite some parts to make it click.

Hello. The game just got updated, although, it's the last Rowley's update for Day3. Kegar's new update is next, and it's already available for the patrons.
You made them out very well. But can you add more save game slots? I love saving games a lot, but it only has 9 slots?
Hello. Thank you for your feedback. I'll see what I can do.
Some update in the 1st of December?
Or in January 2022?
Hey! The next public update will be released around 10th of December.
Ok :-)

You should make an discord server for After years ngl
Hello. I'm sorry, but currently, I have no plans opening a server decicated to After Years. If you would like to discuss the game, please, feel free to join https://discord.gg/FVN instead.
Hi, I was tried clicking on play "game" or something? I'm can't play "after years"... I'm still confused about tho. 😔👉🏼👈🏼
Hello. It's a well-known problem (the game works only on older versions of Mac). Please, try out the Web-Browser Version of the game instead.
(just a quick note, this version requires either Chrome or Firefox).
alright, thanks
I try to install the download, but when I click launch after it has I keep getting an unexpected error and it force closes. I have attempted to delete and reinstall with the same result. Anyone else having this issue?
Hello. It's a well-known problem that occurs on the newer versions of MacOS. Please try out the Web-Browser version instead (just a quick note, this version requires either Chrome of Firefox to run properly) : https://tyrving.itch.io/after-years-web-browser-version?secret=2xVhaOotNJrmXN445...
Where did you get the music for the game? It sounds quite nice :)

Is a little off set, a few centimiters to the right, and you have to go full screen to read it, otherwise it works perfectly!
Thak you for your feedback, I really appreciate it! :)
It does still drain a decent amount but it didn't feel as significant as the download version. The download version felt like I was using up my whole battery in about an hour but the web browser only used about 20% or so in about half an hour
Thank you for checking this out. I'm glad to hear that at least this version is less power hungry :)

Thank you for playing the game, ItazuraKodo. I'm happy to hear that you enjoy it so far =)
Just between you and me tyring, I'm really loving your VN, don't tell echo project that, I really like amicus as much I like Angus and Rowley hehe
*whispers* Okay, It's gonna be or secret~ Thank you for playing the game :D
*SHOUTING* WHAT NO WAY I TOTALLY TELLING!!!!! HEHEHE
I KNEW IT!!!! Kegar is the son of a mafias' leader.... HE HAS A GUN!!!
it's such a good game that make me spend a lot of time to play it. the story line was so good, i can't imagine that angus and Welkin will have a closer relationship its unbelieveable, but it's already done, overall its a good game, good Background too, that's no problem that i find in this game, i still wait for the next update, i'm so excited ^^
Hey, Cornel! Thank you for playing the game and for your kind words. I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed the story so far =)
its amazing vn. Keep it up. İ know 1.50 is about rowley but when doing angus update i hope he mentions about mcs muscle fetish ^^
Thank you for playing the game, Vampy! :)

Thanks for the the advice I will try the Synch Framerate! I did wonder why there was so much loading but that may be it nwn.
Also I did see the censor nsfw button that will help alot!
Something to complain, Can't open the app in mobile,Anyone knows how to fix it?
Hey Furri. What exactly happens? Is there any notification/error message? Also, what are the specs of your device and which Android version is it?
oh ye sorry forgot to delete the comment I fixed it with mega lol.sorry for taking ur time.
No problem, I'm happy to hear that it works now.
Well, how do I set this up on Linux. I need a tutorial or something cause I’m lost.
Hello. I'm sorry to hear about the problem. I'm not familiar with Linux, so I have zero idea about the required configuration for that system. Perhaps you'll be able to easily play the game in your browser? Here a link to a Web-Browser Edition: https://tyrving.itch.io/after-years-web-browser-version?secret=2xVhaOotNJrmXN445...
Extract the files from "After Years 0.14.0 (Linux).zip" and you should get a folder with the same name. Inside that should be a file titled "Game". This file does not have an extension. Click on this file to execute it.

If you think you have gconf installed and it still wont run, I can walk you through running it from terminal. This will allow you to see any errors that are preventing it from opening.
I am new to this game and I just wanted to ask if it's ok to record a let's play of it?
Sure thing! I would love to see a new LP of After Years, so if you do, please leave a link so we could all see it =)
I have a few predictions on what happened in the new update but I'm not going to say it because it might spoil it for others. I'd wish they Welkin had the guts to do the thing he needs to do, but no. I mean, I would act the same confessing to a crush too so. Ugh! It's so painful seeing Welkin walking around without confessing.

Hi! Thank you for playing the game. I'm glad you enjoyed this new update - it was quite a segment to pull off, and I constantly had to rewrite some parts to make it click.
The current cover for the game is an old illustration I drew back in 2017. You can see it in better quality here: https://afteryears.wordpress.com/2017/04/18/april-report/
I have to say, I also really like it, so I ~might~ remake it for a CG later on :)
